Foster & District

Agricultural Show

COVID Safe measures will be in place and are expected to be respected by exhibitors and show patrons:

- proof of vaccination must be presented to allow entry

- all entrants to the grounds must sign in either using the QR code or via the printed sign in sheet 

- EFTPOS facilities will be offered at the entry gates to reduce cash handling

- COVID marshals will be roaming the grounds on show day to promote our COVID-Safe measures. Failure to respect them may result in removal from the grounds

- Hand sanitiser will be available around the grounds. Disposable masks will be available if you have left yours at home. 

- Avoid crowding and attempt to maintain physical distance between yourself and other show goers

Thanks to the generous support of the Toora & District and Foster Branch Community Bank we're thrilled to showcase the action of the woodchop again in 2023! New additions included in our 2022 show proved very popular and we're excited to include them as part of our future shows - sheep breed display, Leaders in Agriculture Seminar Program and the Young Farmers Challenge. 

Crowd favourites such as the dog high jump and sheep dog trial will of course be on display for all to enjoy. The exhibit shed will be open to display the craft, cooking and gardening talents of locals, young and old. 

Of course the best way for you to work out what your show favourite is, be it new or old, is to mark Saturday 25th February on your calendar and come along for a great day out. 

The Foster Show is a celebration of agriculture, the foundation of many families and businesses in South Gippsland. We're proud to offer an event true to what country shows started as - a showcase of the best stock, produce and crafts in the district and the opportunity for locals to catch up with old mates and check out what's new in farming and their community. 

Regardless of age, gender or background, there's something for everyone at the Foster Show. After the kids have checked out their winnings in the pavilion competitions there's plenty of free entertainment on offer including Bricks 4 Kidz and face painting; the pet parade and; the animal nursery so they can get up close and personal with their favourite furry friends. The adults get a chance to get away from the house or work for the day, catch up with friends, compare downfalls and successes of the last year and check out what local businesses have to offer. Whilst the oldies are their to steal the show in the pavilion with their second to none preserves and knitting, they also get the opportunity to reminisce on their days on the farm or riding their pony to school as they stroll down the Avenue of Agriculture. 

If that hasn't sold it for you, spending the day at the Foster Show is simply a great way to show your support of agriculture in Australia and your local community. The people of Foster have loved their show for over 100 years and they're excited to share it with you!
